Kids Intro-to-Strokes Swimming Lessons

We’d love for you to start swimming as soon as possible!

To get started, please complete our Registration Pack , including the signup and indemnity forms, and schedule your swimming lesson(s) with our office. Then, you’ll be ready to start!

We do not offer trial lessons, as our instructors invest significant time into each swimmer’s individual lesson plan.

However, we do provide a satisfaction guarantee, and you are welcome to pay after your first lesson.

We have a 4, 10 or 20 lesson-package pricing structure. Please request an updated swimming lesson pricelist on our contact page, or using the form below.

Children crying (for whatever reason) is a normal reaction.
Don’t take this as a discouraging sign as each individual learns at their own pace, and when ready. We have the benefit of a group swimming lesson structure where children can learn from eachother, along with experienced instructors.
Most of the time children who are upset before or during lessons can see through peers demonstrating fun and play that they have nothing to worry about.

We don’t recommend taking a break from learning any skill as it disrupts the learning cycle needed for progression. If you absolutely have to take a break, then please let the office know so that your lesson credits can be placed on hold.

We are fortunate to have an indoor and heated swimming pool facility. We don’t encourage winter breaks because they do break the learning cycle, and we’ve found that swimmers who take an extended break often need to re-learn key foundation skills and confidence in the water before they continue with new skill acquisition.

There is no set formula for achieving water safety; in fact water will always pose a physical danger, even for the strongest swimmers. The best thing one can do is to achieve a level of comfort when in water so that you are able to support yourself for a period of time. At Stars Swimming School we place a large emphasis on floating techniques to achieve this level of water comfort.

There is no set formula for learning to swim. Learning to swim is a long-term process that requires a commitment to regular practice. Every swimmer progresses at their own rate and will learn the required swimming skills for their swimming level.

Swimmers are limited to a maximum of 4 per lesson in the Middle Pool.
We’ve found these class sizes offer maximum learning opportunity for swimmers through peer demonstration and rest time.

We do however try spread swimming lesson bookings evenly so that class sizes are limited.

Our admin staff will recommend the best lesson type for you based on your previous experience.

During your first session, our instructors will then confirm if that level is the perfect fit. If there is a mismatch, we will reschedule your sessions to a lesson type that better suits your abilities.

We try our best to group swimmers with similar abilities; however, we cannot always guarantee perfect placement as it is often subject to swimmers’ availability.

Yes, although we’re focussed on teaching Learn to Swim, we also offer an Aqua Aerobics class and Adult Beginners classes.

Our qualified and highly experienced instructors each work on specific days of the week.

This means that you may experience more than one instructor if you’re coming for swimming lessons on different days of the week.

Our lesson plans are structured so that a similar weekly lesson outcome is achieved from all instructors, but they may be delivered slightly differently depending on the instructor for the day.
